[Verse 1]
G D/F# Em Em7/D
When the nightingale sings in the deep of the night,
C G/B Am
And the robin, he sleeps on the wing,
G D/F# Em Em7/D
Hear the toll of the bell, ringing out all is well,
C G/B Am
And the city's golden light's shining on!
[Chorus]
Bm Am G Am Bm Bm Am G Am Bm
Ride the long black train, ride the long black train,
Bm Am G Am Bm Bm Am G Am G
Takes us all, black train, take me home, black train!

G D/F# Em Em7/D
And the shadows we pass, turns my soul into glass,
C G/B Am
And the streets that I walk are all tamed,
G D/F# Em Em7/D
Hear the toll of the bell, ringing out all is well,
C G/B Am
And the city's golden light's shining on!

G D/F# Em Em7/D
And the briar, and the rose, in the churchyard they grow,
C G/B Am
'Neath the clocktower tall, all en - twined,
G D/F# Em Em7/D
And the raven he flies 'round the oak, as she sighs,
C G/B Am
And the candles they call out my name...
[Coda]

...to ride the long black train, ride the long black train,
Bm Am G Am Bm Bm Am G Am G
Takes us all, black train, take me home, black train!
